Michael John Neill's genealogy website. Things that cross my path, general research suggestions, and whatever else ...with a little bit of attitude. I don't post "news" just to post it, never post a press release (edited or otherwise), don't feign excitement, and pretty much say what I think.

Was William Kile Court Martialed?

We've mentioned William Kile here in several posts. He was apparently involved in local and federal legal proceedings in the 1850s and 1860s. There are annotations on his muster entries that he was "under arrest." We are going to see if there is any record of his having been court martialed.

Of course, if he was court martialed, the charges must have "not stuck" as he did receive a pension.
